As far as I know (living in Latvia, used to be a part of USSR), it is not completely legal. The owners can call the police, but it usually doesn't go that far.

If you try to camp in a field or near a private lake, try to talk to somebody, if a home is in sight. If not, people in these parts are quite forthcoming and I've yet to get more than a grumpy "Just pick up after yourself."

A NOTE OF WARNING! Making fire pits is a whole another matter. Doing that on a private property without permission might very well land you in jail, or in other kind of trouble.

In short: Yes, but that doesn't stop decent people still doing it and living to tell the tale.
